Public Holiday (Australia Day)

WHAT TO CONSIDER Your Bushfire Risk

Are you in a high-risk bushfire area? (near bush, coastal scrub)

Know the layout of your town, including key roads to leave by

Know when it is a Total Fire Ban Day and what to do

Your Trigger to Act

Know the Fire Danger Rating at your location

The Fire Danger Rating is your ‘trigger’ to act

The higher the rating the more dangerous the situation if a fire starts.

WHAT TO DO Leave Early

When the Fire Danger Rating is Code Red, leaving early is always the safest option

‘Leave early’ destinations could include homes of families and friends who live outside the risk area, a nearby town or built-up area.

Well Prepared If leaving the high-risk area is no longer an option, there may be options close to where you are that could protect you. These include:

A well prepared home that you can actively defend on Severe & Extreme Fire Danger Rating days only

Private Bushfire Shelter (bunker) that meets current regulations

Designated community fire refuge For more information visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667
